I've not done a group buy before. Consider me 90% committed, but it's got to be Paypal.
Edit: Are there group buy instructions somewhere? How does this work?

Yeah...we do lol. Usually Chinese people are very frugal...and when you have to pay ridiculous shipping charges or have sellers online not ship to Hawaii because the "international shipping charges" are too high, you learn to be a miser when it comes to shipping. Nothing pisses us off more than "free US shipping" only to find out that it only includes the mainland 48 states. USPS ships all over the US the same...we're part of the US!

But you get to live in paradise. A small trade off for palm trees, clear water and vitamin D.

Ordered one and it was $150 shipped to Hawaii
I don't mind paying the shipping. What gets me is that when they offer the shipping, I understand it costs more to Hawaii, but most won't even offset the cost with some kind of credit for what they would of had to eat if they shipped it within the 48.
Or when they ship USPS and your item clearly fits in a flat rate box and they try to charge you triple the amount.
Those guys can sit on it and spin.
I didn't want to wait the 25 days because with customs sometimes I've seen it take 2 months. So I went with the DHL.
This is great! Although i bought mine on eBay past week with 10% off of $185, i paid $166 shipped. Should get it this or next week. The price was $160 shipped last few days, now looks like back to $185. Few days before Black Friday it was going for $229 or $249 on eBay.

Like others i agree that TSO replica is too close to OEM price.
Even with TSO black friday sale it was around $380 + shipping + estimated 4 wks wait. Currently i believe uts $425 + shipping.
I’m glad i didnt pay close to $570 for OEM or $380+ for TSO replica.
I’m most likely going to pay a bodyshop to remove front and rear bumper to paint the valances on my TRAIL and may also get this middle garnish painted in process for extra protection against fade... I was quoted $377 for all. Going to go with Black Semi gloss so all matches cleanly.

I paid 125 plus shipping. The guy said if we order 5 or more he can do the kit for 100 dollars plus shipping. Figured I would share it with you guys. Thanks for looking. The packaging is amazing, wood frame and all. I'll be installing it tomorrow
Please dont ban me if this isn't allowed

1. No pics of it installed yet to show fitment.
2. Ordering from a questionable website.
3. $50 for shipping.
I think I just wait and order from Ebay with the next coupon and free ship.

Then buy via eBay like i did. Price is even lower now at $160 shipped. Keep in mind they may increase the price when eBay coupon comes. I paid $166 with coupon last wk.
